Past two weeks seemed to be disastrous atleast for me. If I count this on the behalf of health then I was not lucky for sure.
Some of the person reading out this post might be knowing What I am talking about?
Introducing myself once again as a twenty year old hypertension patient. Two week ago my blood pressure was marked to be (170/90) and I was in a much trouble. I am feeling that my good deed's stock is getting depleted at a much faster rate then the speed with which perhaps light would travel. Prayers always appeared to be work more and I need more blessing of you all guys.
As my blood pressure was higher last week, a gloom of silence was spreaded in our family. Some people advice me to use this drumstick plant leaf as a medicine against hypertension and it work fortunately but still an stark terror ceased my heart that this enemy might return. I will tell this latter in this post about the use of its leaves, you can try this If there is any patient in your nearby localities. Meanwhile I found this contest(https://steemit.com/preppercookoff/@canadianrenegade/prepper-cook-off-challenge-3-over-50-steem-in-prizes#@saun/re-canadianrenegade-2018731t8346783z) to be worthful to give a thanks to the wild variety of Drumstick plants for its feature and its tasty recipe also.
That's delicious dish I would never ever forget.

I don't have any motorcycle or a car and the location where I can find it is situated a little far from our crowded residence. So, I travel by feet and it took me 40 minutes to reach that location.

We were at our wit's end all our food stuff are about to end up.

We searched the cabin, the place we were hiding and fortunately we find raw foods to cook and fed our bellies for one day.
But the fear of disaster was still hanging over our head. We were not sure how many day and night we spend in this cabin situated amidst the woods.
I need to go for a forage so that I could check out if something that could settle down the fire of our hunger.

Here we go!

This is the Drumstick plant wild variety.

I need another ingredients which I could use here that could be stored basically.

Here I change the route. Oh man! That's crazy!
It's groundnut, so many are here.
Let's grab some before someone see me.

Add finely chopped tomatoes, add ½ chilli powder and Coriander powders.
Now add boiled drumsticks into them and mix them once again in medium flame.
Blend 50 gram roasted peanuts to dust form and add it to the above.

Allow to cook for 2- 3 minutes and that's it!

Now garnish with chopped coriander leaves and serve with rice. * Yaammy... not bad*.

**Evaluation: **

I used groundnut in this dish because it provide a unique taste with rice. It also concentrate the water that we put earlier and prevent dilution and enhance its taste but avoid using too many of them.

**Drumstick medicinal use against Hypertension:**

Take fresh leaves of Drumstick plants add it in water.
Boil the water mildly ( approx 1 litre) untill it become ½ litre.
Allow it to cool for half an hour, don't use refrigerator.
Drink this.

Almost 7- 8 days your blood pressure come to normal if it is high.
Even some old person claimed to get completely healthy within 8 - 10 days.
After that leave this experiment.
That's it..
